The spacecraft of the Western Swords Guild was flying slowly in the space. In the cabin, Prince Melancholy and the guild members gathered around the three-dimensional star map, analyzing the route.
"We're in this area right now..."
The Prince of Melancholy stretched out his finger and pointed at the star map, and drew a bright path, and circled an arc along a barren universe at the edge of the star field until he crossed the border of the star field, saying:
"If you want to leave the star field, you can only go to the barren cosmos belt. There will always be omissions in the deployment of the three major civilizations at the border. Although we have the deployment map and patrol map of the three major civilizations, we still need to try our luck..."
Listening to the president explaining the plan, the guild members present nodded.
After accepting the anonymous employment of 5 million Inal, Prince Melancholy came up with some plans in order to successfully transport the virus. Among them, it is a relatively feasible way to seize the three major civilizations and escape.
In order not to be locked by the three major civilizations, the Western Sword Guild has cut off the public link and kept the spacecraft in an invisible state.
It stands to reason that in this way, people cannot receive information from the outside world and become a group of blind people. But Prince Melancholy took advantage of his characteristics as a player to log in to the forum to secretly hire other players, allowing them to provide information at any time through private chats on the forum. The three major civilizations’ deployment maps and patrol maps in the ancient star desert are all like this—even if they are cut off. Quantum network link, he also has intelligence sources, in order to pay attention to the outside world.
In this way, it not only prevents the three major civilizations from locking nodes through the network, but also keeps receiving information from the outside world at any time. Compared with normal characters, players have a huge advantage. It is not surprising why the Keppel consortium has appointed the indestructible.
At this time, a player said: "President, the closer you are to the border, the denser the space monitoring buoys will be. If the failure is discovered, the spaceship will definitely be detained. We only have one chance to seize the omissions of the three major civilization patrols. "
"So we have plan b."
The Prince of Melancholy had a confident expression on his chest, hehe smiled and said:
"Once we are discovered by buoys or patrol forces, we will adopt sneak tactics, leaving only a few people in the spacecraft, and the others will go offline collectively. When the spacecraft is locked in the warehouse, the remaining people will notify us to go online in the vehicle. , infiltrate the enemy base, so that the infected communicator can be entrained."
Everyone nodded. This move also leverages the player's characteristics and uses the offline and offline mechanism to make a time difference. It is very suitable for tasks such as lurking, ambush, and smuggling.
There are also exposed backup plans, then you can only reluctantly give up the spaceship, die in a bloody battle, and then revive at the bound stronghold. In this way, you can find other ways to carry out the mission, and there are many opportunities for trial and error... Anyway, the reward There are 5 million, as long as the mission can be completed, it is very simple to buy another spaceship.
With so many advantages, the members of the Western Sword Guild present were confident in completing the task, as if they saw 5 million Inar beckoning to them.
As for the possibility of becoming a wanted criminal after the incident is revealed, everyone doesn't care much. They have always been in the gray industry, and they are as black as briquettes. , the higher the reward.
People don't care about the loss caused by leaking the virus to ordinary people. Instead, there is a sense of excitement to promote the times. Most of the players who support the spread of disasters have this idea.
The Melancholy Prince was full of confidence and said with a smile:
"Okay, since everyone has no objection, we will act according to this plan. Because we cannot borrow the star gate, we will spend a lot of time on the road. It is expected to enter the barren cosmos belt in seven days. Now I..."
Just then, before he could finish speaking, the spacecraft's alarm suddenly sounded.
"Woooooo-alarm alert! The space-time in this area is stable and cannot be transitioned, and it is automatically exiting transition mode!"
The hull of the ship shook, and everyone encountered the drastic changes. They didn't react for a while. They were knocked to the ground, and got up with surprise on their faces.
"What's the matter, there is a space-time anchor here? Whose trap have we fallen into?"
The melancholy prince was startled and hurriedly checked the radar screen.
At this moment, the light spots on the radar screen suddenly appeared all around, releasing the stealth mode, showing a pocket-like semi-encircling formation, surrounding his spaceship in the middle.
Everyone hurriedly came to the porthole, glanced at the starry sky outside the window, and suddenly their expressions changed drastically.
I saw that the surroundings were full of imperial warships, and their muzzles were aimed at their spaceships.
"Scarlet Empire? Are you here to catch us?!"
The Melancholy Prince and the guild members immediately panicked.
"Could it be that our whereabouts have been exposed? But we didn't hit a buoy on the road! And how did they know that we planned to smuggle the virus!"
After being stunned for a few seconds, the melancholy prince suddenly came back to his senses and hurriedly shouted:
"Don't be in a daze, all go offline quickly, don't be..."
Before the words were finished, a faint voice suddenly sounded behind everyone.
"Don't get what?"
Everyone stiffened, their necks twisted stiffly, and they looked towards the center of the cabin.
I saw a tall black figure appearing inside the spaceship at some point, and the twinkling eyes of electric light were scanning them indifferently.
And this face is all too familiar to players!
"Black, Black Star!!"
The Melancholy Prince was horrified.
Everyone present was stunned. They originally thought that even if someone came to catch them, they were just some regular fleets and power warriors. No one thought that it would be a big man like Black Star to appear in person!
While panicking, the Prince Melancholy felt a subtle flattery in his heart.
The next moment, Han Xiao's eyes flashed, and an aura with a dazzling arc burst out.
Bang!
The energy shock wave spread, slapping everyone on the wall.
Han Xiao is in control of the damage. This time, the power is not strong. The main reason is to put the player into a battle state and not be able to go offline at will.
"I'm fighting with you!" Prince Melancholy was heartbroken, he gritted his teeth and pulled out a slender alloy stabbing sword with silver light, and handed it to Han Xiao's throat with a swipe.
Players are not afraid of death, and dare to attack anyone, even if the opponent is strong, it is impossible to capture without a hand. Prince Melancholy wants to be killed by Black Star himself, so that he can be resurrected in other places, such as the bound main city, without being caught by others. to catch.
However, this little thought is useless in front of Han Xiao, who is familiar with player characteristics.
He grabbed the rapier in his hand, broke the blade with a click, then grabbed Prince Melancholy's head with a big hand, threw him to the ground, and threw him into a negative state of dizziness and shock.
Han Xiao carefully controlled his strength, for fear of accidentally killing the opponent. There was no way. Although the player was much stronger than before, in front of him, he was still as fragile as a bubble.
Others, Han Xiao, didn’t let it go. There was no need to use machinery. With their current physical fitness, they severely injured these players with three punches and two feet. Then they took out the Immortal Binding Rope. A solid.
At this time, the imperial battleship surrounded, connected the spaceship, and firmly controlled it. The imperial soldiers landed and searched for the spaceship.
A lot of mechanical products were stacked into a hill. Han Xiao tested it and found a few communicators infected with the virus. He glanced at the depressed Prince Melancholy and his party, and said slowly:
"You are suspected of smuggling the virtual mutiny virus and endangering public security and the order of the universe. Now that the stolen goods have been seized, you have been formally arrested and brought to justice. Do you have any excuses?"
"No, I'm so sinful, people like me don't deserve to live in the world, I ask for the death penalty!"
The melancholy prince is righteous, and those who don't know think he wants to be generous.
You really look ugly and think beautiful, you are very skinny... Han Xiao quietly rolled his eyes.
At this time, he suddenly paused, chuckled lightly, and took the initiative to say:
"Are you curious why the Empire has long known that you accepted employment and set a trap here?"
Having said that, the Western Sword Guild's group also reacted. This is an employment from the black market. It is reasonable to say that it is very secret and will not leak information.
"You have been monitoring our communications?" Prince Melancholy guessed carefully.
"No." Han Xiao shook his head.
"Then... someone tipped off?"
"Neither."
"What is that?" The Melancholy Prince wondered.
Han Xiao smiled, facing the curious eyes of everyone, and said with a chuckle: "Of course it's because... the people who hired you are the empire."
"!!"
These words were like a thunderbolt from the blue, and Prince Melancholy and his group were shocked, their chins almost dropped to the ground, and their eyes burst out in shock.
"What did you say?"
The melancholy prince almost jumped up with a shock, his face full of disbelief.
"Our anonymous employers are the three major civilizations?! How is it possible, what reason do you have for doing this?!"
Han Xiao laughed and said casually:
"What do you think, the three major civilizations have long known that there will be profit-seeking people who will ignore the overall situation and try to hide and smuggle viruses, so the three major civilizations also sent people to spread employment on the black market in order to expose the restless factors. , to facilitate the arrest... Do you really think that the disaster is on the way, and the three major civilizations will let the black market go unpunished?"
The Melancholy Prince was stunned, annoyed by being teased, angered by being teased, and regret for being tricked, mixed emotions flooded into his heart, and at this moment, he just wanted to roar up to the sky.
—You are fishing law enforcement! !
Looking at the grief and indignation of everyone, Han Xiao's smile became more and more interesting.
The behind-the-scenes employers of this group of players are naturally not the three major civilizations, but he deliberately said this to give players the impression of fishing law enforcement.
As long as this group of people post, it can calm down the jealous chaotic evil players, because no one can guarantee that the employment they received on the black market is true, or is it a trap of the three major civilizations, there are such preconceived ideas There will definitely be a lot less players who dare to take risks and make trouble.
If you catch this group of people, you can play an exemplary role, achieve multiplier effect and save a lot of energy.
In short, it's a rip-off.
Technician Han is not only flickering, in fact, he also intends to really implement the plan of fishing law enforcement.
However, in order to accomplish this, the black market channel must be controlled first, otherwise, in order to maintain its own reputation, the black market will definitely destroy this plan and will never cooperate.
All kinds of thoughts flashed, Han Xiao took out the time-space amber, and showed a kind smile to everyone:
"Since the evidence is solid, then... you can serve your sentence."
The melancholy prince immediately turned pale with panic, and struggled desperately.
"Don't, don't... Please, don't use the time-space amber, I beg the death penalty, let me die! You... you don't come here—"
It's a pity that Prince Melancholy's struggle was useless. Under the panicked gaze of others, his expression was frozen and locked in time-space amber.
Han Xiao did the same and sealed all the players of the Western Sword Guild who were rolling around and begging for death, and the entire guild was wiped out.
"That's it, enough to deter other players."
Han Xiao clapped his hands.
He has already tested the effect of time-space amber on the player. The player's consciousness can still go online and offline freely, but the body will not disappear like normal offline, but will be fixed in the amber... It is equivalent to unable to change the online location, no matter what No matter how many times the player logs in, he can only return to the shell sealed by amber.
It means that as long as it is sealed by time-space amber, the player will not be able to use his own characteristics to escape the imprisonment with those tricks of going offline and resurrecting.
It is impossible for these troubled players to have no idea of the consequences of being caught, but they have inexplicable confidence. First, because death can be resurrected elsewhere, they feel that the probability of being caught is very small. Second, it is a fluke. Psychologically, the disaster did not come to him, and everyone thought he was lucky.
Han Xiao is not surprised by this, just like some people know that they will be banned and still want to hang up, they are punished by themselves.
He is not going to release the Western Sword Guild easily. He just uses this thunder method to intimidate others, kill chickens and warn monkeys, and let others see the end of the almost banning process, so as to curb the evil spirits on the player forum, and deworm the vegetable fields, so as not to prevent others Brought potential good leek seedlings.
In the same way, he is not worried that this group of players will not post on the forum - their bodies are sealed, and they can't do anything. What else can they do without the water group
Moreover, these people are planted in their own hands. With the player's personality, 80% of them want revenge. As long as they believe my flickering, then the only way to retaliate is to expose the so-called fishing law enforcement, in order to destroy the three major civilizations. action.
The situation is under control.
Han Xiao shook his head and smiled, summoned Philip's intelligence to invade this spaceship, and dug up all the communication records.
The real identity of this anonymous employer is also the target of his investigation.
Philip is very efficient. He followed the quantum network and quickly found clues about the anonymous employer.
"Master Om, I found out that this employment was issued by a brokerage organization as an intermediary guarantor. This brokerage organization is one of the black market managers, with a very good reputation and reputation, and is trusted by countless black market mercenaries and black market employers. It can be understood as a black market version of the mercenary alliance. So there should be clues about this employer there, but this brokerage organization has been a black market manager for many years. As a long-established intermediary guarantor, they will not leak the employer's information. "
Han Xiao glanced at the information and nodded secretly.
The head of this black market brokerage organization, he has also heard of, is a very well-known black market manager, and many black market hires are circulated from here.
It can be said that although this kind of organization is under the banner of neutral bystanders, without their acquiescence, those anonymous employment for the virus cannot be circulated on the black market at all.
There is no doubt that they have a share in the crimes that fuel the flames.
"Looks like we'll have to take action against this black market manager first..."
Han Xiao's eyes flashed, and he turned to pat the captain's shoulder.
"Departure, the destination is the headquarters of this brokerage organization in the ancient star desert."
…
at the same time.
Just as the Imperial Fleet was heading to the next destination, the melancholy prince who was sealed in the time-space amber was so angry that he posted on the forum without saying a word.
Just as Han Xiao expected, Prince Melancholy, in the tone of a victim, with the intention of warning others and taking revenge on the three major civilizations, angrily exposed the "fishing law enforcement" operations of the three major civilizations...
